We had a mellow morning yesterday, but
when Lex woke up from his nap he was wired, like he woke up on
the crazy side of the bed or something. So when Jan came over I
decide to leave Eve with her and take Lex outside for awhile.
It was raining, but not very cold (I was fine in a t-shirt and
shorts), so I thought he’d have fun. Summer rain is supposed to
be a good time for kids right? So we played for awhile, dug in
the dirt, found blackberries growing in our backyard (and ate
some, of course!) and went back in after a half hour or so. He
had a blast. And, just my luck, he got sick from it! Not
terribly sick, but he’s sneezing and has a runny nose now.
Blah! So much for my plan to be a fun mommy and play in the
rain.

Completely unrelated, here’s a fun
fact for you. According to my friend (I have no source to cite
on this) 96% of parents think their child is advanced :) Good
to know, huh?
